A POSER FOR FREE-TRADERS.

1t is estimated that within the
next two years not less chan l,5OO,-
600 emigrants will leave Europe for
these shores. The tide of immigra-
ton already setting in is causing
political economists and labor lead.
ers the keenest anxiety, but the
country is big enough to absorb
even this enormous increase, pro-
vided the immigrants are of the
right sort. u4fe
The pertinent question seems to
be: What sort of showing does
the tree-traders get on this basis I?
Some will reply that we have pro-
tected our industries so much that
pauper foreign labor, whose pro-
ducts have been shut out from our
ports, has come over here to work
its sweet will, just as Mahomet went
to the mountain when he found the
mountain wouldn't come to him.
This may be true in part. but as a
whole the result is triumphant
vindication Of the principles of pro
lection. Under a free.trade regime
our money would have gone out and
foreign goods would have come in.
England, the embodiment of free
trade principles, does not want our
manufactures or commodities of any
description-she only wants our
gold. Under the protection system,
even if we have to let out our girth
occasionally to accommodate fresh
colony Of prospective citizens, we
retain within the country the wealth
they produce we diminish local tax
alton and general taxation /; we
acquire perfection in the arts and
industries in which the young coun-
try must for while be dependent
on the old.
Is England, Scotland or Ireland
content with free. trade? Are the
agriculturists of these countries
thriving? Is the burden of taxa
ton lighter than in the United
States, to which so many thousands
of :. blarsted Brltishers" and needy
sons of Erin are swarming over
every week? elgsa.,- 5.!ag Elm
There is plenty of room at home
for the population OF the British
Isles. Ireland is thinly populated J;
Scotland, north OF the Clyde, is a
wilderness, with half a dozen big
towns like Aberdeen away on the
coast. Even in England millions of
acres are lying uncultiyated, and in
some counties, notably Wiltshire,
Cornwall and Lincolnshire, the eye
can roam over seemingly bound
less expanse of moorland, dotted
only with a few huts at wide in
tervals. -ria s...e r. 5.i-.as
Protection would have brought
that land under cultivation it would
have provided labor and occupation
for the thousands who crowd into

the big cities to beg, steal or starve.
The rush of immigration this year
is a sermon, the force of which even
the boldest advocate of free,trade
must lay to mind and heart. 10! sai

The man upon whom the warning
factions of the Democrats in the
West Virginia Legislature have
compromised is the Hon. Charles j..
Faulkner, son of President Buchan-
ans Minister to France, who also
served six years in Congress. The
young Faulkner held a position on
General Breckenridge's staff during
the war. After the close of hostili.
ties he practiced law until 1880,
when he was elected Circuit Judge.
AS a man to harmonic the Demo
cratic party, the Senator.elect will
not be a success. J. One great com.
plant among the rank and file Of
the Democratic party in West Vir-
3ginia has been that the " aristocrats"
or Bourbons have never given the
"pleheians a chance. Fow Faulk.
ner is a Bourbon of the Bourbons,
and will be more offensive to the
"plebeians than Camden, or even
than Lucas. The latter also be-
longs to the pretentious ehivalry,
and as he asserts his intention of
contesting Faulkner's right to the
seat to which the Governor appoint
ed Lucas, there will be trouble
among the aristocrats" them
selves, as the Bourbon element will
have to take sides between Lucas
and Faulkner. The rank and file
of the party, meanwhile, will have
an opportunity to become still
further disguised with the self.ap.
pointed Bourbon leaders aud their
quarrels, and so prepared to leave
the party for the Republican fold at
the next election.-P,ttsburgh Chron.

THE NEW SENATOR.

The Hon. Charles J. Faulkner,
lately elected by the Legislature to
the u. s. Senate, is a young man
with a clean record. He was born at
Martinsburg, September u, 1S47,
and is therefore not yet 40 years of
age. In 1880 he was elected to the
Judgeshlp, in the Berkeley circuit,
to succeed the Hon. John Blair Hoge,
then elected to the House Of Repre-
sentatives. For Judge Faulkner
personally we have a high regard.
Politically, he is no more nor, no less
Objectionable than any other Demo
crat of the latter day school. He is
a bitter partisan and hard fighter,
and will take front rank as leader
of his party. That his selection will
prove satisfactory to the Democratic
masses is possible; but he goes to
the door Of the United State Senate
with a factional fight on his hands.
He cane within less than two hun.
dred votes Of defeat for the Judge
ship in 1880, in district that had
repeatedly given twelve hundred
Democratic majority, and his elec-
tion to the Senate brings him again
in contact with the same element
that, opposed him then. 1t was at
the time an open secret, and will be
we'll remembered by the Eastern
Panhandlers, that delegation ofJef-
ferson county Notwithstanding
William L. Wilson, present Congress
man-appealed to Judge Flick to
run in opposition to Faulkner, pledg1
ing him their support, and guaran-
teeing his election. This was
the result of the sectional diff.
differences between the Berkeley
and Jefferson patriots-a strife that
previously caused Judge Faulkner's
brother, the Hon. Il. Boyd Faulkner,
to run narrow risk in the same
district, when a candidate for the.
State Senate against Samuel Da-,
vison, Morgan county man. The
same Democratic unrest afterwards
caused the defeat of the Jefferson
nominee for State Senate by ma
jority of over 500-Mr. Dawson be-
ing elected. Now that the war of
the roses is revived between the two
.beligerent counties, the contest may
be expected to wax bitter and grow
hot. The Senate will determine
which of the factions shall be repre-
sented in that body; and as the fight
is between two Democrats, with no
Republican contingent in view, we
propose to "say nothing and saw
WOOD" during lts progress. The
young Senator-ifh he be Senator.
will have an antagonist OF large re-
sources and indomitable energy in
Mr.. Lucas. We are inclined to be-
lieve with the West Virginia Demo
crat that Mr.. Lucas will be Senator
for two years. Fairmont West Vir-I

SELECTIONS.
THE RUSSIAN PATRIOTS.

Reported movements of large
bodies of Russian troops to tue from.
tier, coupled with the developments
in the recent trials of Nihilists in st.
Petersburg, reveal a condition OF
affairs in Russia calculated to chill
the blood of the stoutest statesmen
in Europe. The movements of the
troops are, doubtless, the immediate
results Of the startling facts dIscios
ed at the trials. The Gar and his
advisers are at their wits end to
know what to do to arrest the pro
gress of Nihilism, and the numerous
political theories following in its
wake and dependent upon the sue
cess of Nihilism for practical ex
ploitation. They had until very
recently deluded themselves with
the hope that the rigid measures
adopted for It's suppression had
stamped out the pestilent heresy,
but the two or three attempts upon
the life Of Alexander following each
other in rapid succession, and the
subsequent discovery OF numerous
organizations, mining every stratum
of society and spreading broadcast
literature of the most dangerous and
reasonable character, have thorough
ly dispelled the delusion.
Oulianoff, who declared that he
could imagine nothing more sublime
than to die in an endeavor to relieve
the poor unfortunate Russians, and
who warned the Gar that hundreds
of young men will initiate him until
that despot is forced to change his
system of government, may be an
assassin; but he is one OF those
criminals who gid the crime until it
becomes dangerously like the virtue
of patriotism. Except, perhaps, in
intelligence and culture, Oulianoff
does not differ materially from the
hundreds and thousands who have
walked boldly into their graves in
the last twenty years, that those
who come after them may be free.
The Gar can do nothing with such
people except to grant their demands
or kill them. The martyrs of the
Cars obstinacy will become the
seed of revolution which will not
only strike down the Romanoffs and
their hateful system of government,
but may be the means of uprooting
dynasties and rectifying boundaries
from one end of Europe to the other.
